Volume 35, Issue 137 , March 2023, , Pages 73-84

https://doi.org/10.22092/asj.2022.358071.2212

Abstract
  The present study was conducted to evaluate the interactions between forage source (alfalfa hay vs. wheat straw) and particle size (fine vs. large) on growth performance, starter intake and ruminal fermentation of Holstein dairy calves. For this purpose, 48 Holstein dairy calves in a completely randomized ...  Read More
